Deidre McCalla came of age in the fiery blaze of NYC's folk heyday - a time
when Greenwich Village clubs were filled with the likes of Dylan, Baez, and
Ochs; a time when Motown ruled the top of the charts and the streets of
America screamed with anger and civil unrest. Her first album, Fur Coats and
Blue Jeans, was released when Deidre was 19 and a student at Vassar
College. With a theater degree tucked under her belt and an acoustic guitar
tossed in the back of a battered Buick station wagon, Deidre McCalla hit the
proverbial road and never looked back. Deidre later majored in jazz guitar at
the Wisconsin Conservatory of Music and released three albums with the
pioneering women's music label Olivia Records.

With five critically acclaimed albums to her credit, Deidre McCalla
remains the ever seeking road warrior, her words and music chronicling our
strengths and weaknesses and celebrating the power and diversity of the
human spirit.
